I have the same problem. My Arc S connects to my router and everything works for some time. Suddenly, while surfing or facebooking, the information isn't loading any more even when the phone says its still connected. WiFi-Icon in statusbar is still active. Only way to reconnect is to turn WiFi off and on again.
I tried the WiFi-fix application for ICS which was mentioned in some threads on xda but it didn't help.
Stock ICS 4.0.4 firmware, baseband 72, stock kernel from ICS 4.0.4

Does a reboot solve the problem?

Only for about a half hour, then the problem happens again.
Edit: Not a half hour, every 10 minutes or less.
Then it looks like some app or service is interfering with wifi.. Do you have any network related apps installed? (lik vpn or tethering apps or something lik that)

Are you using the 4.0.4 FR version? If so, try flashing another version of ICS like the Mobitel Slovenia version.
The wifi reportedly works better in this version.

No I'm using the Slovenian version.
I had the problem with official 4.0.3, leaked 4.0.4 and now official Slovenian 4.0.4.

The wifi problem in ICS is reported by many!
Please wait with patience for Sony to solve the problem or till someone comes up with a fix!
Sent from my LT15i using XDA
I have this exact same mentioned problem on my galax s3 and 4.0.4.
Really would like a fix soon, glad its a common problem should get some more attention.
I'm on a belkin router and connect to the apple time capsule.
What I have found is the main network in my household is Home which is hidden, and has added security and this problem occurs. And then we have a second network that isn't hidden for guests and visitors, when I connect to it I havn't experienced the problem. So are the others with the problem connecting to a hidden network? Maybe ICS looses the hidden networks or something.
I had the same problem on my Neo V! I solved it by switching my WI-Fi router to b\g mode! and since that I don`t have any problems)))
P.s. Sorry for my bad english((

Has anyone noticed wifi dropping out and reconnecting on official ICS?

Its very strange, but the only reason I noticed it was because it keeps notifying me when it reconnects to my network at home.

Sprint WIFI Bug?

Tried looking for the answer on the forums but couldn't find an answer. I got the wifi bug where your wifi turns on randomly throughout the day. Does anyone know if a fix or if Samsung is in the process of making an OTA fix?

If you got to setting and networks I believe there is an option to turn it off,I got the tmobile version but seem sprint users talking about it

id like to know if theres a fix or something i can do useing root explorer to fix this
Yeah still nothing I even checked the Sammy forums and really couldn't find a straight answer =/ hopefully they find the fix sooner than later

Go to system settings>> wireless and networks >>more settings>> mobile networks>>uncheck automatic connections
Sprint versions have this option to disable it.
Has anyone noticed on certain networks that wifi is continuously downloading(incoming arrow always lit)... i wonder if it has to do with the auto connection thing? Doesnt seem to be affecting batt life but its kind of annoying... at my house it does it but not at work... maybe a router issue?

My wifi is broken? How to fix. Help please

Suddenly i am having wi-fi problems with my htc one.
I am on android revo hd rom v15
After a month using the rom just recently i experienced a problem with my wifi.. My wifi cant detect routers within a range. It can only detect it if you are directly stamding beside the router. Two to four feet away will make the wifi signal 1bar. Then going further will loose the connection. How can i fix it. Please help me..

Try a factory reset after taking necessary backup....u can also try another rom...post back if problem persists..!!
Might be the infamous WiFi problem, try doing squeeze test of problem persists after changing a ROM.
Sent from my faster than SGS3 HOX.
Tried the press thing method it did work. So this means this is a hardware problem? Does htc accept warranty even rooted and unlock bootloader?

I think it is a hardware problem. Because i tried the squeeze method fix it work unfortunetly after squeezing it the problem will persist again.

[Q] Possible wifi issue?

Hi,
I am wondering if it is normal that wifi speeds slow down after a certain time. My wifi at home can reach up to 22 Mbps down and say in a couple hours for example it would drop to 10 Mbps. Immediately I would restart my phone and it would be back up to normal speeds of 20ish Mbps. I do multiple back to back tests on speedtest.net app and my wired connections and other wireless devices are consistent.
My wifi does not disconnect and it has no problems connecting to other souces. At work i have the same wifi issues.
I have a Canadian Rogers Note 2. I am rooted and flashed to cleamrom 4.0.5, fully wiped and reset before flash with twrp. I have tried turning off power saving mode during the slow wifi transmissions and still have this issue,
I am lost as to what to do. Any advice would be appreciated.
Yes this is for me as well I have been on clean rom and now stock and it continues to do the same not a huge deal but I just noticed it last night im on mediacom if thats any help

In the meantime I have installed My Data Manager to see if there is any unknown wifi data transmitting while this problem is happening. When I had the phone bone stock I really did not monitor this issue.
I use the international rom and I notice YouTube buffers longer than it should than it chops shortly after. I just tried recycling wifi and now it's snappy again.question now is how long it will last

Thats what I am trying to figure out. I am not sure what causes it in the first place.
Agreed very weird and I ahve tried alot

I notice link speed drops to about 5mb when directly infront of AP
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
I have been playing with this issue for a few days now. I can sort of recreate this by leaving the wifi range and entering. This will create that speed drop I described in my first post. By turning on and off the wifi toggle resolves this.
While using My Data Manager it shows no mystery wifi or data transfer in the backgound. Everything checks out in that aspect.

I did not notice a drop when infront of the AP.
I'm running stock Att and started having slow wifi speed after the 4.1.2 update. Toggling the wifi fixes the issue but it slows down again eventually.

yeah this blows. I don't know where the fault is. Running cleanrom 4.0.5 with its kernal. I don't believe I have really modified anything other than flashing the rom and a few zips here or there.
Normally it isn't a big deal but it really seemed to cause issues when syncing for the first time with dropbox yesterday. I had to keep restarting wifi. I think part of that was dropbox but 4 gb took literally hours to get done
I don't know if it happens on cleanrom 4.2.5

I am on CleanROM 4.5 right now and it behaves the same way. I did read on another thread that there is a possible fix by replacing the 'wifi' folder with the one from Android 4.1.1.
Here is the whole thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956155&highlight=wifi+problem
I have performed the suggested fix and will monitor the issue when I go about my daily routines.
Any new info on whether your idea worked? I'm experiencing the same thing you guys are.
